So I've looked through the manuals both introduction and FCOM v2. While the FCOM v2 shows that takeoff bump can be selected like any other derate option, when I look in the FMC, there isn't a TO B option. The FCOM mention it as a airline option and the intro manual it did mention the 300ER's engines being able to do TO B. I also looked at the issue tracking post, and that too mentions TO B being enabled for SP1. Maybe I overlooked something?

Download the Emirates paint and go to the THR REF page.  There are a whole bunch of options missing...why?

 

Read the intro manual  :wink:

(Hint: airline options)

As I stated before, I'm aware it is a airline options("The FCOM mentions it as a airline option..") It just I cannot find anyway of enabling it in the THRUST LIMIT page (Yes I have looked around with the airline options in the intro manual to see if I can enable it.) even though the intro manual ["The GE90-115BL1 variant with the takeoff bump option has been modeled here."] and the issue tracking thread["- TO-B (takeoff bump) thrust option now displays (this was there in the RTM code but was accidentally disabled)"] said that it can be enabled.

 

EDIT: So I did some more research and according to real life pilots:

"The 777 FCOM doesn't give too much away in regards of takeoff bump.Takeoff bump is a thrust reference mode which allows additional takeoff thrust when the aircraft is operated in the following envelope.Pressure altitude -2000ft to 3000ft. Ambient temperature 32 to 53C."

 

So I booted up the sim, set the temperature at the airport to 53C in ASN and sure enough the TO B option appeared. Thank you for responding Kyle, and hopefully someone who is intrested "like me" will come across this info.

Another thing to note is : "We only use takeoff bump after other methods have failed to produce the required TOW. Pack off takeoff, APU to L pack takeoff."

Welcome - glad you found it!
